Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in Lago Vista, TX
Air duct cleaning in Lago Vista, TX typically costs between $450 and $900 for a complete system, depending on home size and the number of returns. We’re Cardinal Air Duct Cleaning, part of the Relay Home Co. family, and we approach Lago Vista homes differently because this community sits on the north shore of Lake Travis where limestone dust, cedar pollen, and lake humidity all find their way indoors. Our technicians carry professional-grade Rotobrush and Nikro equipment and hand you a written price before any work starts. Call (737) 727-2314 and you’ll always reach a live person.
Why Lago Vista Homes Are Different
Lago Vista’s geography shapes what we pull out of ductwork here. The neighborhoods around Lohman Ford Road and Boggy Ford Road sit close to Lake Travis, which means elevated humidity for much of the year. Humidity gives dust something to cling to inside ducts, turning what would be loose debris in a drier climate into a film that coats duct walls. Add in the cedar that blankets the Hill Country each winter, and the return side of most Lago Vista systems we open is carrying a layer of pollen that recirculates every time the AC or heat kicks on.
Housing stock here matters too. Many Lago Vista homes were built in the 1990s and early 2000s, and a lot of them run original flex duct in attics that bake under Texas summer heat. Flex duct that’s 20-plus years old starts degrading from the inside, and the fine particles from that breakdown end up in the air stream. We also see homes on elevated lots off Dawn Drive and around Bar K Park where construction from the last building cycle left sheetrock dust in floor joists and return chases. Lago Vista jobs are rarely just about lint; they’re about catching up on what the environment and time have left behind.
Our Main Lago Vista Services
Most Lago Vista homeowners call us about one of three services, and each has its own dedicated page where we break down Lago Vista pricing and what the job looks like here. Here’s what to know at a glance.
Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lago Vista
Dryer vents in Lago Vista run through walls and ceilings, often making two or three turns before they exit. Every turn is a snag point for lint, and in lake-humidity air that lint compacts into a dense plug faster than it would in a drier part of Texas. We run a rotating brush the full length of the vent, then use negative-pressure extraction so loosened debris goes straight into our Nikro HEPA vacuum, not back into your laundry room. Learn more about Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lago Vista.
Air Duct Cleaning in Lago Vista
A full air duct cleaning in Lago Vista covers the supply side, the return side, and the air handler cabinet. We use Rotobrush rotary brush systems to break debris loose, paired with HEPA-filtered negative-pressure vacuums that pull it out of the home entirely. What makes local jobs distinct is the cedar pollen load in the return plenum and the fine Hill Country dust that settles into every trunk line. See exactly what the work includes and what it costs at Air Duct Cleaning in Lago Vista.
HVAC Cleaning in Lago Vista
HVAC cleaning in Lago Vista goes beyond the ducts into the mechanical side: evaporator coils, blower wheels, drain pans, and the condensate line. Lake-adjacent humidity promotes biological growth on coils faster than you’d see in, say, an arid inland market, and that growth reduces airflow and system efficiency. We clean the coil and blower in place, flush the drain line, and confirm everything moves air the way it should before we leave. HVAC Cleaning in Lago Vista has the full breakdown.

No. Air duct, HVAC, and dryer vent cleaning is interior maintenance work and doesn’t require HOA sign-off in Lago Vista. If your vent exits through a roof or an exterior wall, no exterior modification is involved. The work stays inside your conditioned space or your existing exterior opening.
It does. Cedar pollen season in the Hill Country and lake humidity combining with HVAC condensation creates conditions where dust and biologics accumulate faster than in drier Texas markets. A home on an elevated lot off Lohman Ford Road will pick up more fine dust than a sealed subdivision home in a flat county. We recommend a visual inspection every two to three years regardless of cleaning schedule.
